I cannot recommend Penny highly enough for the professionalism and friendliness in handling my case. As time went by I built up and excellent rapport with Penny and I highly valued her advice and guidance with her friendly attitude.

In early 2025 I engaged Ashtons Solicitors to represent me in my claim for compensation for Asbestosis. I was represented by Ruth Hinchliffe, a charming, polite and very patient young solicitor. This personable exterior hides a very capable and knowledgeable negotiator who was always happy to answer my questions, nothing was too much trouble. There were issues in my case of incorrect medical reports which had to be corrected and she dealt with witness's. I would definitely recommend Ashtons to anyone unfortunate enough to be in my situation. A successful conclusion to my claim has now been reached in less than 18 months, thank you Ruth.

I was introduced to Ruth when I engaged Ashtons to represent me in my claim for Asbestosis compensation in early 2025. Her very cheerful, confident and patient exterior hides her very knowledgeable and skilled capabilities especially when dealing with my case which required dealing with incorrect medical reports and handling witnesses. Nothing was too much trouble and i am pleased to say she has brought my case to a very successful conclusion, thank you so much, Mike.

After recently settling our personal injury case, we wanted to express our sincere thanks to Richard for everything he did for our family. From the very beginning, what felt like an overwhelming and emotional process was made so much easier by Richard's professionalism, expertise and genuine compassion. There were countless meetings, reports and questions, but throughout it all he kept us fully informed, explained everything clearly, and always made sure we understood each step of the process. Richard's calm and reassuring manner meant we never hesitated to ask questions, no matter how small. We always felt that our interests were being protected, and his guidance, advice and unwavering support were invaluable in helping S achieve the outcome he deserved. He also had an extensive network of highly respected legal-medical professionals whose expertise proved invaluable throughout the case. Having access to such an experienced team gave us great confidence that every aspect of our claim was behing handled to the highest standard. We hope we never need legal representation again, but if we ever do, Richard would be our first call. We would recommend him without hesitation to anyone looking for a solicitor who is knowledgeable, professional, approachable and genuinely cares about their clients.

It’s no exaggeration when I say that Ashtons Legal changed my life after I sustained a catastrophic traumatic brain injury aged 20. Ashtons was recommended to me by the PALS team at Addenbrooke’s Hospital, and I reached out to them in early 2022 and the case concluded in mid 2026 due to its complexity. Thanks to the absolutely tenacious eye for detail that Mick Upton used in my case against the individual who injured me in a hit-and-run, and the ice cold professionalism and legal acumen that Marcus Grant presented against the insurance company who were the defendants in the case, I am now protected for the foreseeable future and have access to cutting edge care and financial advice outsourced to excellent advisors who also have a great eye for all things economic. Throughout the four-year process I was kept in the loop every step of the way. No stone was left unturned and nothing was left to chance - Mick Upton led from the front to secure me a settlement which is absolutely life changing and Marcus Grant was there to be the face of negotiation, assist and to provide crucial representation when it mattered most. Throughout it all there was a team of ferociously dedicated and committed executives, managers and assistants who formed the backbone of the case and provided their expert aid when I needed questions answered or needed to provide my own input. I would like to thank one of them, Louise Reardon, for being so kind, helpful and understanding when I found it difficult to complete forms or communicate effectively with the team. Her compassion was second to none, matched only by her ability to assist and offer guidance. For them this was another day at the office. For me, it was simply life changing and I cannot express my gratitude adequately in this review. If you need a personal injury team that fights tooth and nail for the best outcome, look no further. 10/10.

Alexandra was supportive throughout the personal injury claim and we really appreciated her patience and guidance. Along with the wider team she made us feel genuinely supported at every stage and we are extremely grateful for everything Alexandra did to help us navigate what was a long and difficult process.
Outstanding Service and Support I can’t thank Mick Upton enough for the incredible service he provided during my industrial injury claim. From the very beginning, Mick was professional, friendly, and genuinely supportive throughout the entire process. He took the time to explain everything clearly, always made himself available to answer questions, and guided me through each step with confidence and care. What stood out most was Mick’s dedication and understanding — he not only handled my case with great skill but also offered a level of personal support that made a stressful situation much easier to cope with. Thanks to his hard work and expertise, the claim was successful, which will make a huge difference for me moving forward and help manage any future challenges related to the injury. I highly recommend Mick Upton to anyone needing a solicitor for an industrial injury claim. His professionalism, empathy, and commitment are second to none.

Ayesha has the gift for explaining everything in detail and in a way that is easy to understand. Her regime for the signing of paperwork involving a witness of signature is brilliant as the documents flow through your hands. She also has an excellent team working with her.

This was my first time using Ashtons legal, it was also my first time selling a property. It has been an experience i will not forget any time soon. Claire and the team have been great throughout, when my buyers and sellers have pulled out or had other complex situations going on i could always rely on Claire to get me an update when i began to think things were all falling apart again... Communication was swift and clear, if i was stuck with anything we sorted it and Claire always took my call. I'm sure the process would have been far more challenging for me had i not have had Ashtons and Claire to help me through it.

I would highly recommend Ashtons Legal for their outstanding service and support throughout our house purchase. A special thank you to Andrew Skuse and Rachel Chilton, who were absolutely fantastic from start to finish. Their professionalism, expertise, communication, and dedication made what could have been a very stressful process feel so much easier. They went above and beyond to help ensure everything was handled smoothly and, ultimately, made our house purchase possible. We are incredibly grateful for all their hard work and would not hesitate to recommend Andrew, Rachel, and the team at Ashtons Legal to anyone looking for a professional, reliable, and supportive legal team. Thank you once again for everything!

We recently used Ashtons Legal for the purchase of our first home and couldn't be happier with the service we received. A special thank you to Kathryn Smith and Sienna Vincent, who were excellent throughout the entire process. They were responsive, efficient, professional and always willing to answer our questions, no matter how small. Communication was clear and timely, and they consistently kept pace with us whenever we needed information or decisions quickly. Buying a house can be stressful, and we'd heard plenty of horror stories from friends and family about conveyancing solicitors. Thankfully, our experience with Ashtons Legal was the complete opposite. Kathryn and Sienna helped keep everything on track, proactively dealt with issues as they arose, and gave us confidence throughout the transaction. The service was worth every penny and we would not hesitate to recommend Ashtons Legal to anyone purchasing a property. Thank you again for helping us secure our new home.
